conclusions in conclusion complementary to the previous studies our results have demonstrated that bronchial artery embolization remains as one of the most efficient procedures in managing massive hemoptysis, with minimal rate of complications. patients and methods all the patients had already been assessed by computerized tomography (ct) to localize and delineate the underlying etiology except...

a 49 year old man with previous history of colectomy for colon cancer was referred to our department for further evaluation of suspicious hepatic lesions noticed during an abdominal ct scan. 99mtc-rbc scan revealed multiple hot spots in the region of the liver, correlating to the ct and liver-spleen scan. further follow-ups of the patient revealed no remarkable change in the size or number of t...

Introduction: Recently, the use of nanoparticles has increased for many purpose in medicine. One of these is using the nano particles in shields structure to protect sensitive organs such as breast which placed inside the field of chest CT scan and receives high dose. The aim of this study was the use of nano Bi2O3 to making shield for protection breast in chest CT examination ...

Abstract B-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (B-LBL) is an uncommon subtype of pediatric non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL) which rarely involves the skin primarily. The positron emission tomography with 2-deoxy-2-[fluorine- 18] fluoro-D: -glucose integrated with computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) scan findings of a 8-year-old boy with cutaneous B-LBL were presented. PET/CT scan demonstrated mild FDG up...

A 25-year-old man was admitted in hospital due to right side hemopneumothorax secondary to car accident. A chest tube was inserted. During the hospitalization days, chest CT scan revealed a 3cmx3 cm oval-shaped density located in the right upper lobe. Since he was in a good general condition, he was discharged from hospital after removal of chest tube and a follow-up chest CT-scan was recommend...

Background Currently, almost all patients with probable abdominal injury undergo urinalysis in emergency department (ED). The present survey was conducted with the aim of assessing the diagnostic values of urinalysis compare with abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan with contrast for predicting possible intra-abdominal injuries in children affected by blunt trauma. Materials and Methods: The...

Introduction: Increasing in refer to computed tomography (CT-scan) imaging causes to increase in cumulative dose. Stereoradiography (EOS) is an X-ray imaging technology that, by eliminating scattering radiation, reduces patient's absorption dose and improves image quality.   Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was carried out in a hosp...

Background: Medical diagnostic procedures such as X-ray and computed Tomography (CT) scan account for considerable percent of patient's exposure to ionizing radiation. The exposure of cells to Ionization radiation results in induction of DNA damage and chromosomal aberrations. Contrast media (CM) are widely used in diagnostic radiology and CT scan. The aim of this study was to study adverse gen...
